THE PLAYS BEING PERFORMED
TIME
Written and Directed by Edward A. Nason
Synopsis
Imagine finding yourself in a barren room with no idea how you got there. A strange person is there with you and keeps checking a pocket watch. They finally speak, talking about death and the psychological wounds you carry from growing up in an orphanage. They force a life or death decision on you. What would you do?
LAUNDRY MAN
Written by Chris Tan
Directed by Tana Aivaz Colburn
Synopsis
Wei and his brother-in-law, Shen, travelled from China to California during the Gold Rush–Shen to make his fortune and Wei to provide a better life for his wife and child. When the gold started to peter out, the white miners began to resent the Chinese miners. Shen left to find a better claim, and Wei never heard from him again. Wei started a laundry, but then the city began pushing the Chinese out of the neighborhoods.

Synopsis
A simple DNA test leads a couple to a shocking revelation, sending them into a spiral of confusion, denial, and increasingly absurd rationalizations.
